||[[Falcon Kick]] allows Captain Falcon to regain his 2nd jump in midair. [[Raptor Boost]] is also a decent horizontal recovery move, but it can not auto sweet-spot a ledge and missing will put him into a [[helpless]] state.

||Raptor Boost now makes Captain Falcon bounce if it hits the opponent in mid air, but using Falcon Dive is still a better and safer option because Raptor Boost has a slow start-up and almost any move can hit through it. Falcon Kick no longer lets him recover his midair jump. Falcon Dive, like all types of grabs, no longer grants the opponent their midair jump again. It can be used against [[edgehog|edge-hoggers]] to [[stage spike]] them, though they can [[tech]] it. | ||Raptor Boost now makes Captain Falcon bounce if it hits the opponent in mid air, but using Falcon Dive is still a better and safer option because Raptor Boost has a slow start-up and almost any move can hit through it.

|[[Jigglypuff]] | |[[Jigglypuff]] | ||
||Jigglypuff is capable of using its [[Rising Pound]] technique for unlimited horizontal distance. While it lacks an up special that grants vertical distance, its five mid air jumps actually decrease in height with the last two giving no vertical gain. It also has the lowest falling speed and the highest [[air speed]], after [[Yoshi]]. Jigglypuff has problems recovering from below but has overall one of the best recoveries from above. Due to Jigglypuff's low aerial priority compared to others in ''SSB'', Jigglypuff has a tough time avoiding gimps. | ||Jigglypuff is capable of using its [[Rising Pound]] technique for unlimited horizontal distance.

If Zelda lands directly on the stage after using Farore's Wind, she suffers from long ending lag, making the move easily punishable. | ||

||Zero Suit Samus has two tether recoveries. [[Plasma Whip]] can be used for horizontal recovery, and [[Plasma Wire]] can be used for vertical recovery.
